If you're in your 20s, you might start hearing the voice in the back of your head telling you to settle down. (That voice could also be your mother.)
Apparently, people in the UK tie the knot at an average age of 27. This is according to Provident Personal Credit, the loan company who analysed data on the average age people get married in European countries.
If 27 is drawing near, don't panic, though — divorce rates are pretty high all over the world, so you could argue there's no rush.
Here are the 21 European countries with the lowest average age of getting hitched, ranked in descending order.
=20. Slovakia — 31.35 years.
In Slovakia, there's an old wedding tradition where the bride wears a delicate green wreath on her head as a symbol of purity.
=20. Lithuania — 31.35 years.
Lithuanian weddings are often divided into three parts. First, there is the matchmaker who puts the couple together, then the ceremony itself, and then the "atgriztai," or "coming back," where the bride and groom return to the bride's parents' home.
19. Liechtenstein — 31.2 years.
In Liechtenstein, as the newlywed couple leave the church, a tradition is that they are "barred" from going through the town by local villagers. These people are then "bribed" by the best man to let the couple pass.
